I hate xmas and all the probs you get from kids putting new games on your pc
Youngest had a vitrual safari game which she tried to install when you go to programmes and click on the relevant icon you get this message This application uses Wing32 DLL and has been incorrectly installed in the C:\WIN\SYSTEM directory.Please move it to C\WIN system 32 directory How do I do that? |

Have you tried uninstalling the software, and reinstalling it

Normally they install themselves to the right place, did you do a custom install and change the path last time you installed
If it installs in the wrong place again, one of the other support members will be able to point you in the right direction -------------------- REGARDS

What is the actual title of the game/software, it may not be XP compatible

I cant find that game anywhere, it must be an old one. have you just bought it?? if you have, take it back to the shop and ask is there an updated version for XP. modern games rarely mention win95
Some of the old games will just not work with XP -------------------- REGARDS
